I been thinking about this for a while now and I feel like I must write about it here so that you guys can read this and post YOUR thoughts and opinions on the matter.
So anyone who has played PSU here on the 360 or even on the PC/Ps2 servers knows that we have been greatly mistreated by SOA/SOJ yet some of us including myself and those who have moved to the JP servers are still hanging in there because we love this game, period. Sometimes we complain about the horrible treatment we get here, but yet we suck it up and continue playing.
From the start the PC version of the game was the far superior version of the game, yet it still had all of the major flaws that the other versions had. I've been playing PSU since it came out on it's first week I bought it for ps2 and then for PC when I made my gaming pc. Now I play on the 360 servers. I've also played PSO on DC and GC pso so i'm no rookie to this game.
Now we all know what those "flaws" I speak of are especially if you play the 360 version so I dont need to go into too much detail about those, however I will break em down a little bit.
We constantly deal with horrible slowdown, scammers, reskins, lack of content, lack of updates, lack of honest support, hell now known players are getting their accounts hacked and taken away! and my fav of them all all of a sudden 360 PSU is a "different" version of psu hahaha! Yet Sega does nothing to fix any of these issues, but yet we still hang in there by either sucking it up and staying on our server or moving to the JP one even though we dont know the language (well some of you do).
From the start ever since the game came out we have been poorly treated. PSU failed here in America it never got the support PSO did. We got treated as low class gamers eventhough we still payed month after month.
Sometimes I roam around here when i'm bored and have nothing else to do. I click on those jp threads people make here and then click on the videos they post of their adventures in the JP version of the game and it looks sooo cool! I have a capable PC which can run psu no prob, but at this point I dont think it's worth moving to the JP side now. Especially with PSo2 hot into developement. I'm sure PSU doesnt have much time left on either server. So it's pointless now.
Now I know this may seem like a silly rant at this point but hear me out. Even though the game has all these problems I still LOVE the game like most of you here (it's the sole reason we play) I just wish that things were different is all.
Now with PSo2 coming out, but looking at how much of a fail of PSU was i'm seriously thinking of not playing PSO2 as much as I loved PSO (the reason I play psu) I think i'm gonna have to pass on it. If they are gonna treat PSO2 the same way they treated psu then it's not worth getting into at all. It's not worth getting treated like lower class gamers anymore.
I also, think that a big par of the problem has to do with the actual community itself.
For example, people flame each other and get into these huge online arguments over topics such as this one. People make comments such as "oh will it's your lost cuz you dont come to the jp side"
Comments like that are stupid plain and simple. and it's comments like that, that dont help this cause heal or get any better. If a Sega employe wre to read such comment they will be like "oh look we dont need to fix any of this s*** we are treating them like crap but yet even their own population is against them haha so silly!"
Another popular comment is the good old "Herp derp 360 sucks!! PC 4lyfe teh dude!!!" Again the cimmunity just bashing each other and going at each other throats insted of doing something positive...This type of mentality is what holds us back too.
The other problem is the fact that we suck it up and deal with it too. So i'm part of the problem aswell. This is actually one of the MAJOR problems actually.
Lets say we all got together and made a thread on the official PSU site and we all said "Sega we arent taking anymore of your bs, you either fix all these problem and get your ****ing act together or we will all quit and you wont get our money anymore!" Edward@ Sega is our "spoke's man" correct so he could get this important message across to SOJ.
Two things can happen from that. Either they say "**** you. We dont need your money" and close the servers, or they will get scared and know that we mean business and actually get their act together and actually start sorting many of our problems here.
Though I know i'm part of the problem because I always suck it up and deal with it. I would be willing to do such a thing if EVERYONE else was supporting the same cause.
However, that's never gonna happen here, with people flaming one another, others simply not caring as long as they can sit on the 4th floor all day and try their best to cyber female chars we are never gonna move foward as a community.
Anyways, thats all for now. I know topics like this have been made in the past, but they always end up bad because people here are so immature. However i'm asking you as a fellow pso/psu fan to try to take this seriously and really think about the actual problems here insted of quicking pointing out JP psu.
Because in reality it shouldnt have to be that way. There's no reason why non jp players have to suck it up and learn the jp version or spend money/start over on it because they are so lazy/incompetent/dont care about our servers.
If this needs to get put somewhere else cuz it doesnt belong in this area of the site then I dont mind. I just figured most people will see it here sooner is all
Anyways, looks like it's back to the grinding for me. All I can (or any 360 player) do now is just do my best to make the best out of the little we have here and not be negative all the time because that's def not gonna get us anywhere either.
That said post your thoughts and opinions. Do you share similar feelings like mine? Will you run out and buy pso2 in a heart beat and not care about the treated me have recieved? Or will you wait and see how PSO2 gets handled? Or are you completely DONE with Sega and their BS and have quit already and not planning on looking back at all?
Like always, everyones opinion is welcomed in my thread no matter how silly it may be
